Bulevirtide
Based on 8 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Bulevirtide (Myrcludex B) is a NTCP inhibitor, a linear lipopeptide of 47 amino acids. Bulevirtide inhibits HBV and HDV entry into liver cells, blocks HBV infection in hepatocytes, and participates in HBV transcriptional suppression. Bulevirtide can be used in HDV infection and compensated cirrhosis research.

Bulevirtide (200 nM, 24 h) inihibits NTCP through non-covalent binding in a time- and dose-dependent manner, transfer to a newly synthesized NTCP molecule[3].
Bulevirtide (Huh7-NTCP cells, 2 μM, 9 days) exhibits potential antiviral activity as replication inhibitor, which blocks upregulation of NTCP mediated-HBV replication in Huh7-NTCP cells [5].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Bulevirtide (2 μg/g/d, s.c. for 3 weeks) blocks HBV cell entry in uPA/SCID mice through addressing the hepatocyte component rather than affecting virion productivity within the infected hepatocyte or the half-life of these cells[4].
Bulevirtide (5 μg,s.c., twice a day for 4 days) blocks upregulation of NTCP mediated-HBV replication in C57BL/6 mice as a replication inhibitor[5].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
